EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
For a better performance and to achieve its mission, Rwanda Public Procurement Authority developed an action plan for the 2009/2010. The activity report of the year 2009/2010 focused mainly on public procurement, capacity building, monitoring of procuring entities as well as the enhancement of legislation through the elaboration of legal texts, notices and provision of advice. It is in this regard that RPPA received bids, evaluated them and awarded tenders. As usual the tenders were of works, goods and services. Contracts of works included the construction of infrastructure such as roads, public buildings, bridges and other works of public utility. Supplies included office equipment, medical equipment and supplies, school materials etc. Contracts of services are mainly those related to intellectual conception. In total, 275 contracts whose value amounted to 263 729 537 202FRW were awarded during the year 2009 - 2010 as follows: Works: 108 contracts of works valued at 159 462 540 006 Frw; Goods: 146 contracts valued at 89 875 718 288 Frw; Services: 21 contracts valued at 14 391 278 908 Frw.
About the sources of financing, tenders financed from treasury takes the first
position with 154 112 678 181 Rwfs (58%) followed by those financed directly by
donors with109 616 859 021Rwfs (42%) of all contracts awarded.
Regarding public procurement method used, open tendering was the method
used most with 81 of all tenders awarded by number. However, when we
consider the value of tenders, this percentage becomes only 49.30%. For the no objections, RPPA granted 73 no objections worth 11,387,677,417.05
Rwfs in the year 2009-2010. Regarding capacity building, 106 people were trained during the second phase of training in the use of dg Market, while for the training of procurement officers and internal tender committee members, 202 people were trained. Concerning audits, for the tenders awarded in year 2008 and mini budget 2009, 46 procuring entities were audited. Concerning legal issues, a draft law modifying and completing the law No 12/2007 of 12/03/2007 on public procurement was elaborated; the draft Ministerial Order defining the competence of RPPA and fixing the thresholds for public procurement entities was drafted and adopted by cabinet. With assistance of a Consultant hired by the MINECOFIN, a draft Code of Ethics that will be governing people involved in public procurement was elaborated. To help staff
v
managing public procurement, a draft of Procurement User Guide has been prepared. RPPA staff also provided legal advice to public procuring entities on various cases.

Introduction
The Rwanda Public Procurement Authority was established on 30/12/2007 by the law
no63/2007 establishing and determining organization, functioning and responsibilities of
the Rwanda Public procurement Authority. The RPPA replaced the National Tender
Board and unlike the latter whose role was to award and monitor proceedings of public
procurement, the RPPA mainly focuses on regulatory measures, monitoring and building
capacity in public procuring entities.
RPPA‟s vision is to be ‘the center of regional excellence in Public Procurement and
its mission is to achieve the best value for money for the government of Rwanda
under efficient, transparent and fair conditions’.
Though the main function of Rwanda Public Procurement Authority is to regulate,
monitor and build capacities in public procurement, it still awards some tenders during
this transition period after which all procuring entities will have the full responsibility to
award all tenders. During the fiscal year 2009-2010, RPPA awarded tenders above three
hundred million, and carried out prior review of all tenders between two hundred million
and three hundred million Rwandan francs (granting no objection).
This report summarizes the activities that were carried out in the fiscal year 2009/2010
and these are:
1. The activities of board of directors
The Board of Directors (see the list of members in annex 1) as the main decision
making body of Rwanda Public Procurement Authority played a big role in the
achievement of the Institution‟s objectives.
Some of the achievements registered by the Board of Directors in their meetings are:
2
(i) The approval of first semester 2009 report
(ii) The awarding of 275 tenders worth two hundred sixty three billion, seven
hundred twenty nine million, five hundred thirty seven thousand, two
hundred and two Rwandan francs (263 729 537 202Rwfs)
(iii) The approval of blacklisting of 26 companies that had violated the law
(iv) The appointment of 9 members of staff
2. Awarding tenders
Rwanda Public Procurement Authority procures some of the goods, services and works
on behalf of public procuring entities in a transparent, equitable and efficient manner
It is in this context that tenders are advertised, tender documents are availed to
whomever wants to bid without discrimination, giving enough time to bidders for
preparing their bids, opening bids in public sessions for everyone to witness, forming
evaluation committees to ensure transparency and propose the award of contract.
2.1 Tenders awarded
In a bid to procure goods, services and works on behalf of Public Procuring entities in the
year 2009/2010, RPPA received 101 requests for publication. RPPA advertised 143
tenders out of 300 that had been planned, 42 tenders were brought forward from first
semester 2009. On the other hand, RPPA received 23 tenders requesting for no
objection on the tender documents out of 320 tenders that had been planned and 5
tenders were brought forward. Among these tenders 22 were granted no objection and 6
of them were not granted no objection because 4 of them did not respect the standard
bidding document and 2 were returned to clients as they were under client‟s
competency. This implies that the planned tenders requesting for no objection were
reduced by 297 tenders, this is because the threshold for procuring entities was raised to
two hundred million Rwanda Francs.
81 tenders requesting for no objection on the evaluation report were received and 3 were
brought forward from first semester 2009. 69 tenders requesting for no objection on the
evaluation report out of 300 planned were granted no objections including 3 brought
3
forward from the first 2009 semester, totaling 72. Eight (8) were not granted no objection
because they were under client‟s competency and 4 were given objection. Tables 1 and
2 and figures 1 and 2 show the details of the tenders awarded and no objections
granted.

Table 1 shows that the number of tenders awarded by RPPA on behalf of other
procuring entities were 275 for the year 2009/2010 an average of 22.9 tenders per
5
month. When you compare with 157 tenders awarded for the first semester 2009 the
average was 26 tenders per month. This was due to the threshold which was increased
from two hundred million to three hundred million. On the other hand the value of tenders
awarded by RPPA increased from 56,621,522,980 to 263,729,537,202.11 Rwfs over the
same period , in actual fact the Government spent more in the year 2009/2010 up to
465.8% if compared with mini budget 2009 because of large tenders for public works
namely: 1. Rehabilitation of Kigali- Ruhengeri road (83.1Km) worth 24,991,862,212
Rwfs. 2. Rehabilitation and periodic maintenance of Mudasomwa- Gisovu road (53 Km)
worth 3,468,752,240 Rwfs; 3. Cyakabiri Nyabikenke Ndusu road (Lot 1) worth
3,118,997,587 Rwfs; 4. Reconstruction of Bushenge hospital worth 2,409,944,993 Rwfs;
5.Construction of SFB learning complex worth 6,432,218,870 Rwfs; 6.Turnkey contracts
for the supply and installation of optic fiber cables (FOC), civil works and other additional
material as well as other services for Kigali and National backbone network worth
33,068,147,965 Rwfs (56,523,850.00 US$); 7. Rehabilitation of roads in Gisenyi Town-
Rubavu district worth 5,572,999,534 Rwfs; 8. Rehabilitation of Cyangugu-Ntendezi-
Mwitazyo worth 29,278,660,301 Rwfs; 9. Rehabilitation of Congo/Nil- Ntendezi worth
10,633,467,514 Rwfs 10. Rehabilitation of KAZABE-RUTSIRO-GASHUBI roads worth
2,875,255,978 Rwfs; and 11. Construction of Kinihira hospital worth 4,012,994,354 Rwfs.
The total cost for 10 tenders (3.6% of all tenders in number only) is 120,971,996,301
Rwfs and carries a very significant proportion of 46. %
Works took the highest proportion of value of contracts awarded in the year 2009/2010
(60.47%) in contrast to the mini budget 2009 when it was goods that had taken the first
position in this regard (55%). Usually, it is the public works that take the highest
proportion of value of contracts awarded but in the first semester of 2009, no important
contracts for works were awarded.
Treasury was the major source of funding for the tenders awarded in both year
2009/2010 and semester 2009 (58% and 74%) reflecting increasing ability of
government to generate its own resources as well as the use of budget support
mechanism by donors.
6
Regarding procurement methods, open tendering (both national and international) was
the most used in the year 2009/2010 and it was 82% in number and 68% in amount
compared to 83% in number and 58% in amount in the first semester 2009.
Although there was an improvement in the use of open tendering in 2009/2010
compared to 1st semester 2009, the level was still lower than 2008 and 2007 (above 80%
in amount for the two years). Two large contracts were responsible for this namely: Kigali
and National Backbone for the Optic Fibre Cable and Rehabilitation of Rubavu Town
Roads and Construction of Drainage Channels in the town. The two tenders were
awarded by single source method and they alone contributed 15% of the total amount for
all tenders awarded. The reason for single sourcing the construction of Kigali and
national backbone for optic fibre cable was that the government wanted the backbone
built within a reasonably short time and identified Korea Telcom for the assignment. As
for the rehabilitation of Rubavu Town roads, initially they had not been planned, but
when it was clear that their poor state was hampering economic activities a decision was
taken to have them rehabilitated immediately. The tender was awarded to SNCTPC by
single source method because it had equipment in the area and would therefore execute
the works in a short time.

12 months while the first semester 2009 was 6 months. This decrease was due to the
raising of the threshold.
2.2 Advertisement of tenders
We ensure the advertisement of tender notices on RPPA website and dgmarket.
Necessary arrangements are also made with agents from “BUSINESS WEEK” so that
international tender notices can be published in that newspaper. We also summarize
tender notices to be published on RPPA notice boards for the public.
3. Audit and field visits
3.1. Audits 2008 plus mini budget 2009
- Number of entities planned vs number of entities audited For the tenders awarded in year 2008 and mini budget 2009, 46 procuring entities were audited out of 55 that had been planned. -Main findings In General, the following weaknesses/challenges were noticed
Lack of annual procurement plan in some procuring Entities; Many awarded tenders that were not planned;
Many tenders awarded through inappropriate procurement method;
Awarded tenders that had no tender/request for proposals documents;
Tender/Request for Proposals documents which did not conform to the
national standard bidding documents;
Awarded tenders that did not have opening and evaluation reports;
Some opening/evaluation reports which did not conform to the national
standard models;
Bid evaluations which were not based on bidding documents criteria;
Some contracts/purchases orders not available during the audits;
Unavailability of some provisional/final notification letters to successful and
unsuccessful bidders;
Poor filing system in some procuring entities;
10
One procurement officer who is insufficient to handle procurement activities
in some procuring entities;
Unavailability of some internal tender committee (ITC) members during
procurement process (Opening, evaluation etc.);
Delay in execution of some tenders;
Delay in payments of some tenders in some procuring entities,
Lack of knowledge about some technical specifications.
During the audit activities, it was noted that that procurement procedures were respected in the following proportions
For the 46 entities audited, 41 entities had their annual procurement plans i.e. 89.1% of all the entities audited. Nevertheless, in terms of number, on a total of 1,987 tenders taken as samples, on a total of 2642 tenders awarded by all the procuring entities audited, only 1,078 appeared on the procurement plans, which stand for 54.2%. The total value of all the audited tenders was 53,239,432,328RwF.
1,176/1,987 (59.1%) of audited tenders were awarded through appropriate method (authorized by the law on public procurement) and the commonest method used was the open competitive tendering. It was used for 869/1,987. I.e. 43.7% of all the contracts awarded by number. In terms of value, the total amount for all tenders, which were awarded through this method, totals 42,165,630,403RwF which stand for 79.2.3% of the total price of all contracts audited.
Other methods used were in the following ratios (by number): - Restricted tendering method (national and international): 372/1,987, i .e 18.7% - Request for quotations (shopping): 460/1,987, i.e. 23.1%; - Single source method 139/1,987, i.e. 7 %; - Unidentified method due to lack of supporting documents concerned: 147/1,987, i.e. 7.3 %.
For 1,019 tenders that required the preparation of tender documents/Requests for proposals, 781 TD/RFP only, i.e. 76.6%, were available and were presented to the auditors. Among these tender documents, only 197 tender documents were prepared according to the Standard Bidding Document. i.e. 25.2%,
The number of tenders, taken as samples that would be transmitted for an à priori review by RPPA was 55. Among these, the request for no objection was done for 43 tenders, that is to say 78.1%
Reports of opening of bids were available for 57.7% of tenders audited. Some
procuring entities still put a section about opening of bids in the evaluation report and
think this is sufficient which is not the case.
11
Evaluation reports available and presented to auditors were 1678/1987, i.e. 82.8% of
all the audited tenders,
1064/1678 of the available evaluation reports showed that the evaluations of bids
were based on criteria of bidding documents. i.e. 63.4%
According to the regulations in force, the performance guarantees should be required
for every tender having the amount which is more than five million Rwandan francs.
Although this one was not systematically asked, the audit found that it was required
and submitted for 536/781 tenders, which represents 68.6 %.
The contracts / purchase orders which were presented to the auditors are
1,721/1,987, which represent 86,6%
The reports of approval of consultancy services exist for 109/291, which is 37.4 % of
the tenders of consultancy services audited,
Number of tenders for supplies that delivery and receiving notes/ reports were

4. Capacity building
4.1 Training workshops
The numbers of people trained exceeded those that had been planes by far. This was because more people turned up for training than had been expected for dg market training and there was refresher training for procurement officers and members of tender committees which had not been planned. Therefore instead of training 100 procurement officers in the use of dg Market which had been planned, 106 were trained while instead of training 100 procurement officers and internal tender committees in procurement procedures, which had been planned, 202 were trained. All training sessions were conducted by RPPA, RIAM, DG Market and IMA (International Management Academy).

6. Policy, legislation and investigation.
This section covers policy and legislation activities, legal advisory activities,
investigation and blacklisting activities. In this regard the legal team worked on
drafting amendments in order to improve public procurement law, advised a
number of procuring entities in legal issues relating to procurement, and updated
the blacklist.
6.1 Policy and legislation
A draft law modifying and completing the law No 12/2007 of 12/03/2007 on public
procurement was elaborated. The draft corrects some provisions found with
language mistakes, amends others for improvement by adding paragraphs or by
removing unsuitable ones. In order to collect many ideas and cover all issues
encountered by procuring entities and enforcement stakeholders when they were
implementing the law on public procurement, consultative meetings on the draft
were organized. The draft Ministerial Order defining the competence of RPPA
and fixing the thresholds for public procurement entities was drafted and adopted
by cabinet. With assistance of a Consultant hired by the MINECOFIN, a draft
Code of Ethics that will govern people involved in public procurement was
elaborated. To help staff managing public procurement a draft of Procurement
User Guide has been prepared.
The legal team of RPPA reviewed the draft of procurement procedures for
“BANQUE RWANDAISE DE DEVELOPPMENT S.A” and discussed with
CAMERWA team on the amendment draft of “public procurement Manual for
CAMERWA ASBL”.
20
6.2 Legal advice
During the first semester 2010, RPPA provided legal advice on various cases.
Some of them were related to contract drafting or management, others on
procurement proceedings. Advice availed in this regard certainly helped
requesting procuring entities to prevent or avoid disputes that should have
increased procurement costs for them or helped them to respect public
procurement procedures. The expectation is that the advice availed have helped
procuring entities to attain objectives of the procurement they intended to
achieve.
6.3 Investigation and Blacklisting
During the year 2010/2009, RPPA had 89 cases were under investigations for
violating the law on public procurement (including those that had been received
during the previous years which had not yet been finalized). Investigations on
twenty two (22) cases were finalized leading to blacklisting of 22 companis.
Among them, fourteen (14) were blacklisted for failure to execute tender
contracts. These are:
RUKOFAR, ERWABRICO, ECOGEC, ECKE, ECFM, BL TECHNICS &

use of forged documents. These are: GECO-INTER, ERT, ECODIF, EKAJEKO,
ECOSAF, ALAFACON, STUDI INTERNATIONAL and SOCOBAT/RP.
Investigations were still ongoing for the remaining 67 cases.
6.4 Litigation
RPPA Lawyer represented and defended RPPA appearing before the court on
behalf the Independent Review Panel (IRP) in two cases related to decisions it
21
made. The legal team prepared and submitted the defence in cases brought to
the High Court respectively by NSHIMIYIMANA SHADRACK against RPPA/IRP
in re RAD 0084/09/HC/KIG, FIRST CLEANING Co Ltd against IRP in re RAD
0107/09/HC/KIG, and HASHI EMPEX Ltd against IRP in re RAD
0053/09/HC/KIG.
6.5 Other activities

legal team was charged to guide visitors. In this regard the team introduced them
to legal and institutional framework of public procurement and guided the
delegation to visit key institutions which are partners of RPPA in public
procurement.
The RPPA legal team participated in EAC conference on various protocols
related to the implementation of EAC Common Market and other policies and

10.3. Accounting policies
a) Basis of preparation
The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the following
policies, which have been applied consistently in all material aspects, unless
otherwise indicated. However, where appropriate and meaningful, additional
information has been disclosed to enhance the usefulness of the Financial
Statements and to comply with the requirements of Article 70 of the Organic Law
on State Finances and Property: Law No. 37/2006 of 12 September 2006 and
Ministerial Order N°002/07 of 9 February 2007 relating to Financial Regulations.
The Financial Statements have been prepared on a modified cash basis of
accounting, except where stated otherwise. In the context of Ministerial Order
N°002/07 of 9 February 2007 relating to Financial Regulations the modified cash
basis of accounting means financial transactions which are recognized in the
books of account as follows:
1 Generally, transactions are recognized only at the time the associated cash
flows take place;
2 The expenditure on acquisition of fixed assets is not capitalized. Thus fixed
assets are written–off on acquisition and the wear and tear (depreciation) of
those assets is not recorded in the books of account; and
3 Prepaid expenditure/advances is written-off during the period of
disbursement.
The recognized “modification” is as follows:
29
1 Invoices for goods and services which are outstanding on the date of the
closure of the fiscal year are recognized as liabilities for that specific fiscal
year;
2 Loans and advances are recognized as assets/liabilities at the time of
disbursement and related interest is recognized only when disbursed. Interest
payable on public debt is accrued; and
3 Book balances denominated in foreign currencies are converted into the
Rwanda Francs at rates of exchange ruling on that date issued by the
National Bank of Rwanda. The associated exchange losses are recorded as
recurrent expenditure while the exchange gains are recorded as recurrent
revenue.
b) Reporting entity
The financial statements are for Rwanda Public Procurement Authority. RPPA
was established by law n°:63/2007 of 30th December, 2007. The entity is located

legal tender in Rwanda.
c) Revenue
Cash transfers from Treasury

directly to the bank account of the institution periodically. The budgetary
allocation is mainly used to fund recurrent expenditure of the institutions. The
receipts are recognized when the cash is received.
Direct payments by Treasury
30
These are payments directly made to suppliers by the Government on behalf of
the institutions. Direct payments are recorded when the transfer is made to the
supplier.
Inter-entity transfers from a Ministry/Agency
These are funds received from another budget agency. The funds are recognized
when they are received.
Grants and loans from Development Partners

when the institution receives the cash from the donors.
Other income
Other income includes internally generated income, receipt of fees from payment
of fines, penalties and forfeits, interest and dividend income, proceeds from sale
of capital assets and funds received from repayment of loans and advances to
employees. Other income is recognised when received.
d) Expenditure
Expenditure is classified according to major categories in line with Article 19 of
Ministerial Order N°002/07 of 09/02/2007 relating to Financial Regulations. The
main categories of expenditure includes salaries, goods and services,
exceptional expenditure, interest payment, repayment of principal on debt,
subsidies and current transfers and capital expenditures. Expenditure is
recognized when payment is made.
e) Cash
Cash comprises cash on hand, demand deposits and cash equivalents. Demand
deposits and cash equivalents comprise balances with banks and investments in
short-term money market instruments.
31
f) Receivables and Advances
Receivables mainly relate to loans and advances which are recognized at the
time of disbursement. Receivables also include amounts due to the budget
agency as at the end of the year.
g) Account payables
These mainly relate to invoices for goods and services which were outstanding
on the date of the closure of the fiscal year. These are recognized as liabilities for
that specific fiscal year.
This also relate to loans and advances to the institution which are recognized as
liabilities at the time of disbursement.
h) Foreign currencies
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the Rwandan
Franc at the rate of exchange issued by the National bank of Rwanda (BNR)
applicable for the dates of the transaction. At the balance sheet date, book
balances denominated in foreign currencies are converted into Rwandan Francs
at the exchange ruling on that date as issued by BNR. The associated exchange
